I guess the air flow should be low, since it is so thin. Well, i guess you have no choice. Perhaps you can use water cooling

after i change it to exhause method, another 2c drop....
so compare to stock hsf, total drop around 8~10c in a sff case ...

haha

my oc-ed E8400 (3.0GHz to 3.6GHz) in my sff case using stock cooler

idle = 50c
load = 77c

damn hot...

huhuhu
its time to change cooler eh..u using which casing??

dunno wat brand... only hav model name... CS238... full alu

owh lol...my ex-casing also...
use xigmatek HDT-963 maybe can fit..or other tower heatsink but make sure u measure the empty spaces between ur psu

CS238 - Black , one of my dream case
coz big enough to install 4 fans



This part i'm going to install OCZ reaper 1066 on the yellow slot there
hope it fits in lol

Here is my interpretation of the data i gotten from rsangel
Stock Cooling
Stock average load=82.75
Average idle=48.5
T Delta of idle and load on stock=34.25

Thermalright AXP140 + UVnium 120mmx12mm 1500rpm fan(Scythe)
Average load on axp=66.75
Average idle=43.75
T Delta on AXP140=23

So conclusion:
11.5 C lower delta
16 C lower load temp
4.75 C lower idle temp

All this are average number from his Q9550 C1
Well testing condition might variation but this should give you some idea of how the performance
And don't forget this is in virtually almost no airflow Silverstone Sugo and done on some weaksauce fan which could not bring the full performance from AXP140

Thanks for the input bro, mm.... SG01 is still a nice case for SFF, maybe need to tweak to increase the airflow inside out lol

Hey dude, was wondering, did you try the AXP-140 passive without the fan? I was thinking of getting a SG02-F, but very concerned for cooling as the 78mm height restriction is very limiting.

SG02? i though is the same design with SG01 but steel right?
the clearance should be 82mm bro....

btw, haven't tried passive cool ho ho
will try later when my rams reach

Yeah same design, but abit different on the hard drive cages to allow 12" long video cards.

Really? But I see Silverstone's website, the quoted space for clearance is 78mm? Hmm OK, but still have to get a AXP-140 or NT06... either that or one of those old style Zalman flower coolers. Hate those lol.

Ya I wish to know the fanless performance too as my Griffin may not be able to take it with fan and have to rely on top exhaust faf though.

Hm forget about the clearance bit, I went and checked, it is 82mm indeed. XD

2 two =_="
no worry...i'll try once i received my reaper...so i'll open up my case for ram installation

ho ho ... AXP-140 is the right choice.... although the price is more expensive than NT06, but .... it does it works well in a SSF rig bro (from review i think better than NT06 even in passive)

how much have u blast ure wallet with both uvnium and axp140?
and anyone here have a sg04? where u buy it and how much?
and at the rear part theres a slot flow crossflow fan. which size of fan would fit there if i want to put sumthin there?

Try asking DaRkSyThE, if im not mistaken he owned a sg04 right now.

@rsangel,try lapping the AXP140 nicely
Also power the fan off molex

Eh.... now my wallet is having a big big hole lol.... AXP-140 bought for 90 + 20 + 20 = $130 + $15 (transport) * 2.42(rate) ...... boom~~~

no la... lapping maybe will improve another few c.... i'm good with current temps lol

eh where the pics of full setup???
